6. Madden NFL 09

IGN

Sports games are always a good way to spend some quality time with the guys, and especially so when you’re all enjoying America’s favorite four-downs pastime. Madden NFL 09 from Electronic Arts is one of the company’s most successful sports titles, and the game keeps getting better with each annual release. Now where does the girlfriend crux come in? Well, when you have a room full of testosterone, four to eight game controllers and likely a few cases of beer, things will tend to get a bit rowdy. She’s not going to like you for being a boisterous macho-beast when the guys are around; and she’s really not going to like you when you've destroyed the couch and sprayed beer everywhere after a game-breaking touchdown against your buddies.
